Is Forex education compulsory for a trader?

I learned most of what I know through trial and error, but going through some basics early on would’ve saved me from losing money in the beginning.

100% my experience also.

I resonate fully - starting with a structured education (even free resources) spared me countless newbie mistakes before I went live
